A system administrator








 is a person employed to maintain and operate a computer system and/or network. System administrators may be members of an information technology (IT) or Electronics and Communication Engineering department.








The duties of a system administrator are wide-ranging, and vary widely from one organization to another. Other duties may include scripting or light programming, project management for systems-related projects, supervising or training computer operators, and being the consultant for computer problems beyond the knowledge of technical support staff.


To perform his or her job well, a system administrator must demonstrate a blend of technical skills and responsibility.


I think this is suitable job for those characteristics  that I suggest in P1 .




- That person should be chill when she came to job like always going to sleep at right time, drink coffe at the morning and also breakfast because this is the most important meal of the day , always be organised for the next day in work,  she/he should know what she/he
 suppose to do like asking
the Boss what can
 do to achieve that, then probably Boss can be the right person she/he can advise also if your motivated and happy you 
do the work to the best of your ability instead of just doing it because you 
have to. Changes your attitude wich effects customer relations. 
If your motivated
 you can get more accomplished
 in a shorter amount 
of time, giving you more time to focus on other tasks as well. "Time is money"




MAKE TO DO LIST ? 

The best thing to do will be take time either at the beginning of the day or just before you go home, to list what you need to do.
 Try to put items in order of importance. You always stay on top of your
 workload if you can reference a list and you get a great sense of satisfaction ever
time you cross something off.

              Touch things once ?

That ifyou are being organised is all about making decisions, thats up to you,  so deal with tasks as they arrive. If a piece of
 paper crosses your desk, don’t pick it up, wonder what to do with it and put
it down again. Decide what to do with it, then do it, schedule time to do it, file it or bin it.
